Chapter 18: The Knife of Troubled Times

Hearing Lu Yu's eager words, Hua An still had doubts in his heart, but his hands held the handle of the knife without thinking. Surprisingly, there was no hot and hot as expected, and some were just biting cold.

At the moment when he was shocked, a huge suction force suddenly came out from the knife, not only the body, but also the soul as if it would be absorbed and devoured in the next moment.

Letting go, this was the only way he could think of in a crisis.

However, the strange weapon that was made by the young master himself and 'supervised' by himself refused to stop there, it was like a vicious beast that had awakened from the desolation, and had made up its mind to eat Hua'an so that he could taste this long-lost delicacy.

"Young Master...... You!"

Hua An was scorched by the sudden ghost fire, and through the green firelight, he saw that Lu Yu's gaze had become gloomy and weird at some point, the once gentle smile was gone, the one who kept talking to himself in the snowy night, the one who saw it in the first ray of morning light...... Those warm, enthusiastic eyes are gone, only cold at the moment.

His heart sank like this, and the memories of the past kept flashing in his mind, he witnessed an unprecedented rebellion, he witnessed the destruction of the country, and he witnessed the test of people's hearts.

He came to the Central Plains with a hateful heart, he expected to be able to get a body of force, he expected to be able to have unparalleled wisdom, and he expected to exchange these for everything he lost. But......

But ordinary people refused to take him in, but the predecessors refused to teach him, and not only that, but there were still pursuers who were greedy for bounties behind him endlessly. He ran away, hidden, constantly competing with birds and beasts for food, racing against time, and he was only fourteen years old that year.

was a worry-free age, but he was tested by life and death every day, wandering on the verge of death again and again, and tormented by hunger and cold again and again, but none of these could defeat him.

He learned to climb trees and swim so that he didn't have to go hungry, he learned to bandage and first aid so that he could save more energy, he learned the habits of wild animals, and he had a sense of smell and perception far beyond that of ordinary people......

Originally, he thought that this was the path he would take for the rest of his life, but at some point, he found that the pursuers behind him were gradually decreasing, maybe they were tired of eating and sleeping in the open, maybe they thought they were dead, or maybe it was some other reason, in short, it was great news for him.

He lurked in the mountains for a while, and finally determined that for some reason, the pursuers behind him were long gone. So one day, he decided to go out and have a look. And when he appeared in front of people in rags, he was pleasantly surprised to find that no one could find out his identity. Not only that, but the hatred that had treated him like a tiger and a wolf was gone, and it was then that he realized that the rebel who had relied on the rebellion to make everything had been suppressed.

He got the weight of his master by virtue of his outstanding talent, and he also got a good martial arts as he wished, and he had a group of reliable friends. It's the same this time, he once thought that he had blended in with the crowd, thinking that he would choose a partner among the junior sisters who would be nymphomaniac when he saw him, and live a happy and healthy life.

But he was wrong again, and this time he had almost no place to turn back.

After a drunken experience, he shared his secrets with those closest to him without any scheming, not noticing that the face of his usually chatty best friend had become very strange, and the eyes that looked at him were no longer heart-to-heart, but full of greed.

It turns out that it is so easy to destroy a friendship, if the treasure can be exchanged for your lifelong friendship, I will give it to you, if you need a magic elixir, if you need a magic weapon, just say it, I can also try to give it to you, but why do you do this to me!

A jar of wine that was said to have been brewed by her own hands was served, and he knew that there was poison in the wine, but he still pretended not to know, he only wanted to know how unpredictable the human heart was, and he only wanted to know how cruel a person's heart was.

The price of knowing is that he began a new round of escape, because he was charged with killing his fellow disciples, and the secret that was unearthed again.

He knew very well who the informant was, because she was the only one who had not turned into a sword soul. But it was precisely because he knew that he was more miserable.

A man, a knife, he struggled between life and death, a man, a heart, he laughed wildly in the sea of blood, a man, two pairs of shadows, he danced among the corpses.

Until that snowy summer night, in that strange snowfall, after an unusually tragic battle, he was tired and tired of running for miles, and the knife in his hand could no longer be held, he fell to his knees in the snow, let the wind and snow blow away the long-lost tears, and closed his heavy eyes with despair and sighs.

It's been a long time.

"Hey, are you dead?"

The childish voice echoed in his ears, and the neutral voice between men and women made it impossible to tell whether it was a boy or a girl.

"Ahh ”

Hey, hey, hey, you little ghost is not annoying, I didn't see that Uncle Ben was covered in blood, and the ghost head knife overflowing with cold light was at your feet, show me the atmosphere clearly!

"It's better to dig a pit and bury it, let the monks in the temple help you recite the scriptures tomorrow morning, I hope you will enter reincarnation as soon as possible, Amen!"

Don't you know that the monks in the temple are all liars, how ignorant you really are, and what the hell is the 'Amen' in your mouth!

"Hey!

That little kid actually said to himself that he was going to bury himself, didn't he die in the hands of bullshit righteousness, but in the hands of a stinky little ghost?

"Ahh ”

Whoever it is, take this stinky little ghost away, and annoy the uncle like a fly.

The woman with a nice voice kicked him in disgust, and said coquettishly: "This kind of stinky human makes me completely unappetizing, if you don't want others to find out, it's better to divide the body, it's faster and not easy to find." ”

What's the matter, what's the origin of this messy ghost girl, what does appetite mean, and what do you mean by your faster corpse, think that your son-in-law has killed someone, and want to help him cover up? What a stupid woman, she actually thought of such a backward way to deal with it, obviously she can destroy the corpse with just a fire.

He knew that if he didn't say anything, he might be dismembered, so he said with great difficulty: "Get out... Give me... Get out!"

"Ah, you're not dead, but the first thing people in a coma say when they wake up is 'water... Give me...... Is that right?

Say the wrong thing about your sister, get out of here!

"One... Two... Three... Four... Five"

Why, if you really want to divide the corpse, five pieces of a tall and burly figure like me is definitely not enough, do you have common sense!

"Childe can't do it, this is your living expenses for half a year, and if you give this beggar you'll only have to drink the northwest wind. ”

Is it five pieces of gold? Although Young Master Ben is not a beggar, for the sake of the gold, it will be difficult to accept it.

A tender little hand broke his palm, and then put half a year's food money in his hand.

Is this a gold nugget? The weight is wrong, the silver one seems to be wrong, should it be......

"I've been saving these five copper plates for a long time, so you can take them and buy some food. ”

Is it really a copper plate? I'm so cheap......? Judging from his tone, it seems that his family is very poor, how can I get an inch, but ...... But the guy who can afford to hire a servant girl will have a poor family, and I can't lie down if I can walk like this, so I really don't have any common sense to say that children hate it.

"After eating, you will be my servant, from today onwards you will be my swordsman, remember to do your job well!"

Your sister's, five copper plates, you actually directly incorporated Uncle Ben.

I really can't help it, Lao Tzu is hung up today, not in the hands of the enemy, but by you stinky little ghost to death, but even if you die, Lao Tzu has to look at you to see which little kid is so uncommon-sense.

It was at this time that the first rays of light cast on the morning sun. As the night passed, the figure of the stinky imp gradually appeared in his eyes.

What a man that is!

A well-trimmed girl's costume shows her status as a noble child, the strange picture scroll hanging on her shoulder exudes a strong fairy atmosphere, on that bright little face, the slightly upturned lips show a mischievous smile, and the most important thing is that the eyes are so gentle, so clear, that he has a moment of distraction.

"It's good to be alive!"

He literally fainted after saying this, but even in his sleep, he could feel the warmth that gave him a feeling of rebirth.

In reality, Hua An opened his eyes violently, only to see him angry Dantian, and shouted in a deep voice: "Open it for me!"

Yes, I shouldn't be suspicious at all, I have long been redeemed, saved by the young master who had to wear the clothes of a handmaid in the early morning, because of 'poverty'.

That's right, I'm not him, I'm Hua An, the Jiupin sword guard, the sword guard who swore to protect this lamb for the rest of his life!
